Know your contamination risk before it becomes a problem
Most facilities have never been assessed for contamination risk. They react to problems instead of preventing them. A HelpYard contamination assessment maps your risk zones, identifies gaps, and builds a monitoring plan tailored to your operations.
You cannot manage what you have not measured
Unknown contamination baseline
Most facilities have never measured their actual contamination levels. They clean on a schedule and hope for the best. Without a baseline, you cannot know if your cleaning is effective, if your environment is degrading, or if you are compliant with applicable standards.
Monitoring gaps you do not know about
You may have sensors in the server room but not in the cable entry points. You may monitor the main cleanroom but not the adjacent gowning area where contamination originates. Every unmonitored zone is a blind spot that can cascade into a facility-wide problem.
Compliance requirements you may not be meeting
ISO 14644, ASHRAE TC9.9, and industry-specific standards define what is acceptable for your environment. If you have not been assessed against these standards, you may be out of compliance without knowing it — until an audit or an incident reveals the gap.
How it works
How a HelpYard assessment works
Facility walkthrough and risk mapping
We visit your facility, map every zone, identify contamination sources, and assess your current cleaning and monitoring practices. You get a visual risk map showing where your vulnerabilities are.
Baseline measurements
We take particle count, temperature, humidity, and airflow readings across all critical zones. These measurements establish your contamination baseline — the starting point for any improvement program.
Gap analysis and monitoring plan
We compare your current state against applicable standards and best practices. The output is a prioritized gap analysis with a monitoring plan: what to measure, where to measure it, and how often.
What the assessment delivers
Contamination risk map
A visual map of your facility showing contamination risk levels by zone. High-risk areas are identified with specific sources and contributing factors.
Baseline measurement report
Particle counts, temperature, humidity, and airflow measurements for every assessed zone. Compared against your applicable standard (ISO 14644, ASHRAE TC9.9, or custom thresholds).
Compliance gap analysis
A detailed comparison of your current environmental conditions against the standards your facility should meet. Each gap is documented with severity, impact, and recommended remediation.
Monitoring plan
A recommended sensor deployment plan with placement locations, measurement frequencies, and alert thresholds. Designed to eliminate the blind spots identified in the assessment.
Cleaning protocol recommendations
Recommended cleaning methods, frequencies, and materials for each zone based on contamination risk and applicable standards. Aligned with what HelpYard can manage and track operationally.
Implementation roadmap
A phased plan to move from current state to continuous compliance: quick wins, medium-term improvements, and long-term monitoring infrastructure. Each phase has clear deliverables and timelines.
Find out what you do not know about your facility
A contamination assessment takes one to two days. You get a complete risk map, baseline measurements, and a monitoring plan. No commitment to purchase anything else.
